Degradation of 17α-methyltestosterone by hydroxyapatite catalyst
Fish farming is becoming a highly profitable economic activity and the rearing of fingerlings involves the practice of sex reversal for the production of species (male) using the hormone 17α-methyltestosterone (MT). This study analyzed the methodology for degradation of the hormone through solar and...

Fish farming is becoming a highly profitable economic activity and the rearing of fingerlings involves the practice of sex reversal for the production of species (male) using the hormone 17α-methyltestosterone (MT).

The results showed that MT hormone is degraded by ultraviolet or solar radiation, and accelerated in the presence of the HAP catalyst.
